The Holiness Meeting.

The Holiness Meeting.
The ''evangelists'' closed their preach
ing under the tent ut this place on last
Sunday. aHd the tent was taken down
on Monday. The tent has been stored
away in Mr.. w. II. Harris shop at this
place for the present, and will not be
used in the fntnre unless the ''evangei-
iStS'' find, AFTER they have commenced
their preaching, that the church where
they may be is not large enough t. hold
the people who may desire to attend.
In that'event, il the people desire it and
will pay the bill, the tent will BE- sent for
and put up. They find the tent 4 very
expensive piece OF business. We deem
it useless expense, where there are as
many churches as there are in Ncwbcrry,
and almost any otLer place in South
Carolina, to be hauling around this big
circus tent. OHe afternoon last week
during gale the tent blew down, but
there were no services under il 1T the
time, and 10 persons, and Of course no
one was hurt. We do not believe evan
galism OF this kind pays, and think tie
money it costs had better be given to
our churches and the pastors who are
with MS all the time and labor for us
every day.

A Mountain Route for the Atlantic

The new owners of the Atlantic,
Greenville and Western are already
looking for route over the noun

the survey made by Captain Kirk, in

man to get up for them the required
facts and measurements as obtained
by his former survey. lie is now in
Greenville engaged on that work. 1t
will be remembered that tine survey
referred TO opened way over the
mountains with grades and curves Of
astonishing ease.

The Triple Slayer Sentenced.

Spccial Dispatch to the Neus and Courier.
EDGEFIELD, March l6.-Judge
Norton this morning sentenced R. 7.
Jones, the murderer, to twenty-five
years in the State penitentiarv at
hard labor. lie received the sem
tence with an air Of injured innocence.
The Judge, in his preliminary re-.
marks in passing the sentence, was
about to express his opinion in re.
gard to the crime, when Major Gary
begged pardon for interrupting him.
but respectfully suggested that lie
take into consideration the fact that
there might be another trial in this
case, and he would ask him to refrain
from expressing his opinion. The
Judge acceded to the request, and
simply pronounced the sentence as
above. Before the sentence was pro-
nounced Major Gary pleaded for his
client in very touching mauDer,
imploring the Judge to exercise
mercy towards him by making the
sentence as light as possible. He
begged the Court to dispense justice
with an eye to the infrmities Of nu-
man nature, the circumstances cor.
nected with the case and the provoca-
ton that made the homicide probably
necessary, reminding the Judge that
Mercy, like the gentle dews of
heaven, falls lightly, blessing alike
him who gives and him WHO receives. y

before he will 60 to the penitertiary.

conversation recently with an editor
and banker from New England, I
laid this plan before him and asked
bis opinion Of it. lie replied: If
you can carry it through successfully
you can get all tie money you want
on your bonds in New England at,
certainly, 6 per cent. and very posi-.
bly, at s.
IF the owners of unproductive
lands in South Carolina will perfect
some such organization and have it
properly conducted 1 am sure they
will soon receive a handsome reye-
nue from what is now q burden to
them"
There is the suggestion Of "'tion
as we'll as thought in this statv.' mt.
South Carolina, more than any other
Southern State, needs to day the co.
operation Of her people in building
ber up. Beyond any other State she
requires unanimity of aim and act.
She will be the last State affected by
the alabama BOOM or any move.
ment from without. There can be
no question that she must help her,
self before she can expect others to
help her. Any movement to place
her abreast Of her more fortunate
sisters must be originated by her
own sons. When they undertake
with wisdom to help themselves they
can rely upon outside aid.
The experience Of every Western
State and every Southern State and
now enjoying "boom' shows that
most potent factor in material devel
opment is the Improvement Com
pany," an organization which by
combining the resources of people
unable individually to act effectively
secures the capital and management
necessary to make it powerful for the
general good. Tue plan proposed
by the gentleman whose views have
been given is one which has been, in
all essential features, adopted salts
factorily in the Northwest. There
is no reason why it cannot be equally
effective in this State. It can be
made an agency to attract outside at
tention to South Carolina, as well as
to develop resources within the State
which will make it in time indepen
dent of foreign aid.

duced profound impression upon
US all.
In addition to these proofs there
were two facts which perfectly har-
monized with the theory that the life
of the Dauphin had been saved, and
that Mr.. Williams was the Dauphin.
The first fact was the striking re-
semblance Of Mr.. Williams to the
Bourbon family, and especially to
Louis XVI. The other fact was that
although the Duchess de'Angouleme,
on the restoration, erected monu.
ments to all other members of the
royal family, she left this young
brother, whom she idolized, without
any such memorial.
| have felt the embarrassment of
writing this article with such an in
sufficient memory Of dates; but l
cannot be mistaken in the facts which
I have recorded from my personal
knowledge. I took the deepest in.
tcrest in the question, and my conf.
dence in the high Christian character
Of Mr.. Williams was unbounded.
His life Of humble Christian labors
long after he had become acquainted
with his origin, and his refusal to
make or to allow to be made any ex-
hibition of, or any capital out of, his
wonderful story, entitled him to the
highest reverence and regard.
l may add to these brief notes that
a work on the life and death of Louis
XVII was published in two elaborate
volumes, the object of which was to
show that the Dauphin died IN the
Temple prison. It vas very labored
and was supposed to have been in
spired by Louis PHILIPPE. 1t did not
seem to me conclusive. I rose from
its perusal with my conviction un.
shaken that we had Bourbon among
